Easter 2006 JR, Cathy, Mary and Chuck stayed at the Kontokali Bay Hotel. It was close to town and events. The hotel is large with a friendly reception, beach front, bar and pool area all impressive. For Easter the hotel offers a shuttle into town but they fill up fast so plan ahead and leave early. We missed some of the events due to traffic and it does get very crowded downtown. Getting there drove 8 hrs. from Athens to Igoumenitsa (mainland Greece) and took a ferry over which took about 45min. Driving around Corfu is fast and easy and because of the central location of hotel, traveling north or south will only take an hour at most either way. The golf course is 15 min. away which the guys enjoyed playing especially when the shephard let his sheep onto the 9th green so they could graze. Corfu's way of "trimming the greens", seriously. The Easter Sunday buffet was wonderful and all you could eat. Entertainment included traditional greek dancers, lots of music, free ouzo which had everyone eventually dancing around the pool. I would definitely go back to this hotel which offers more in warmer months. Good link to CORFU - http://www.corfunext.com/all_about_corfu.htm
